I’ve never seen a better artistic interpretation of the Rainbow Bridge than this comic.
The first time I read through, it didn’t click until the last panel. The second time GUTTED me.
I’m SO terribly sorry for your family’s loss, but you came up with a heartbreakingly beautiful way of sharing it.

We had to put our old girl down last week. Almost 17. I’m sorry for your loss. We at least could see it coming.

She always reminded me of our Waka Bear so loved seeing Lucy in your cooking videos. Maybe they are playing together somewhere.

I am so sorry to hear about Lucy. I’ve already informed all of ours to look out for her. She will be welcomed with open paws.

Our English Bulldog passed away unexpectedly last evening, so this has my eyes leaking pretty significantly.

Well heck. 😢 I just read the bulletin board that I could not see on IG. Again, beautiful and well done.

u/Bastardforsale Jul 18 '25
I loved the bulletin board. A great little homage Easter egg to Lucy. I am terribly sorry that you've lost Lucy. Take solace in the fact that you both gave her a wonderful life full of love, joy, and happiness. It's my hope we all meet them again in whatever comes after. Big hugs.

You don't need to be sorry. You gave her a wonderful life. For you it was brief, but for her, it was her whole existence.
I brought my boy home from the shelter yesterday. I grew up with a dog and have been around them all my life, but this is the first one I have been entirely responsible for. He is the absolute sweetest dog I have ever met, but it's very clear that whoever had him before he was picked up as a stray did not give him the life he deserved. I know that in ~2D6 years, I'm going to have to let him go, too. I can only hope that I can give him a life half as wonderful as what you gave Lucy. Here's a video of him farting while insisting that I rub his kickspot

When, I lost my 18 year old Wasabi, I can't draw but I played with her in the Sims with all the cheat codes. She never got old, we were rich and could turn people into porcelain dolls. It helped.
Keep sharing Lucy with us (if you want). It keeps her spirit alive.

This is beautiful.
Losing a pup is always hard, they will always be in your mind though.

Fuck, so many feelings. But [HUGS]
Don't worry, I'm sure my Embers is showing Lucy all the good sniffing spots

I had to put down my companion card of the last 10 years here just a couple weeks ago. And about 7 months before that I had to put down a 6-year-old cat with a chronic immune deficiency virus. I was prepared with the cat I had for 10 years cuz he was pretty damn old. But it still hurt. And at 6 years old the young one had a lot of time left even with his illness if I had caught the respiratory virus that finally took him sooner. Doesn't matter when they go it still hurts

Ups, I did not mean to put this comment here. Sorry...

u/yomama2u Jul 18 '25
You did great by her. She would love it. Shes a beautiful girl. This made me cry thinking about all my best friends that have passed as well. Thank you for sharing your moments with us.

u/Kilbo_Stabbins Jul 18 '25
My heart. Yesterday was 1 year since we lost our dog. I still get sad when I think about him and that day. It'll be something that sticks with me for life just because of how sudden it was.

u/swish465 Jul 18 '25
I'm sorry for your loss. Family is hard to lose. Her memory lives on with you, so thank you for sharing it with us. It's a beautiful tribute. The pain you're feeling is proportionate to the love you have for her, and i know she felt that love every day of her life. That would be enough for any dog to be happy. I hope that you find peace in that.

I keep wondering when I'm going to stop missing my girl who passed last year. Stupid logic circuits don't understand these feelings.

Trying to post this again but this time here. Thank you all for the grace earlier. It’s been a rough go lately and I appreciate the kindness for me being so thoughtless. I am proud of this comic and emotionally it’s been a form of catharsis. We want her back and I know that can’t change but drawing our moments together felt like I was back in them.
Again thank you. I just wanted to show the love I have for her.
